Hundreds of Republicans, dressed in red and wearing cowboy hats, began arriving at the American Airlines Center, an arena located in the U.S. state of Texas, where an unprecedented midterm convention with the presence of former President Donald Trump is being held until Thursday.

The Republican voters arrived to the sound of traditional country music, dancing and waving their cowboy hats as they occupied the arena's benches, which quickly filled with the colors of the American flag.

The event represents a significant moment for the Republican Party, marking the first midterm convention held in the United States with Donald Trump as the central figure.

Climate and environmental crisis is ignored in government plans of almost all candidates for the presidency, Observatory points out

According to a report by the Climate Observatory, almost all main candidates for the presidency of Brazil ignored the climate and environmental crisis in their government plans, despite deaths caused by floods, landslides and windstorms and environmental degradation. Among the six best-positioned candidates in the polls, only Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT) presents robust proposals for climate and the environment. The current president's plan is considered the most "green" by the institution, dedicating an exclusive chapter to the environment and being the only one to cite the Paris Agreement. The analysis also mentions the devastation and contamination of rivers by illegal gold mining in the Xingu and the complete drying of a stretch of the Rio da Prata in Mato Grosso do Sul.
